Raspberry Streusel Muffins

These moist, sweet, raspberry muffins have the most perfect, crunchy streusel topping. Bake some up for the one you love or just eat them all yourself!

I have always loved sweets, but it wasn’t until my senior year of high school that I really got into baking. My best friend and I actually filmed a cooking show in my kitchen once because we loved baking so much (no, you cannot see it, it was awful).

When I was in college I took an introductory cooking class, and that’s where I first tasted this recipe. Unfortunately, when our group made these delicious muffins, we also had to share them with the whole class. In other words, I only got half of a muffin and was left completely unsatisfied.

Luckily the recipe was super simple and I already had all the ingredients at home, so I was able to go make some just for me after class was over. Needless to say, this recipe was one of the few that made it into my recipe book after the class was over. And also one of the only recipes I replicated as soon as class was over. It’s that good.

I thought they would be perfect to share with you since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! Raspberries are red/pink so that works, right? If not, just make them anyway and after tasting them, you’ll agree they’re perfect for Valentine’s Day (and every other day of the year because they are that good).

After eating about three (I’m not going to definitively state how many I immediately ate) I thought about channeling Red Riding Hood and packing them up in a basket to share. Instead, I ate another one. Don’t judge. Eventually I did go take some to friends, but I for sure saved some for me. So just go bake some of your own. They take less than an hour and you’ll be stuffing your face with raspberry muffins, too.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
